TALLINN, ESTONIA: 'The Bachelor' Season 27 is getting more interesting by the episode. As the reality show progresses, we are slowly seeing the number of ladies being slashed down. In the recently released episode, Aly Jacobs was eliminated during the rose ceremony.

Aly put on a brave face and remained smiling as she left the room. After Zach Shallcross presented his final rose to Katherine Izzo and not Aly, fans of 'The Bachelor' claimed that this happened because Aly was "unproblematic" and the show was looking for drama for the storyline. Some even criticized that the show kept Aly only because of the "diversity quota." Aly being preferred to Kat did not go down well with the fans and of them accused the producers of excluding the Black beauty during Black History Month. Read on to find out more.
